Description[edit]
The scientists of Clan Blood Spirit and Clan Snow Raven worked together to start their ProtoMech programs. The six-meter tall[5] Chrysaor was the first ProtoMech the two clans designed. As it was the first design they produced, they ran into several engineering problems. These problems delayed deployment by several years, but did allow the engineers to eliminate the problems in the Cecerops production lines. Fortunately the Chrysaor was worth the wait. Combining high speed with ammunition-independent ER Micro Lasers and good armor make the Chrysaor a dangerous foe. Though a determined MechWarrior can quickly kill it, that same MechWarrior will know he's been in a fight.
Both Clan Blood Spirit and Clan Snow Raven use the Chrysaor extensively.
Weapons and Equipment[edit]
The armament of the Chrysaor is a quartet of ER Micro Lasers. Though not tremendously damaging by themselves, a Point of Chrysaors can quickly peel the armor from all but the heaviest units.
Variants[edit]
- Chrysaor 2
- Removes the ER Micro Lasers and replaces them with two Micro Pulse Lasers and five jump jets[6]. BV (2.0) = 177[7]
